McCain's impetuous nature revealed and no one is watching
My guess is that the McCain camp watched the speech and realized the impact. McCain then reacted in a manner that has been repeatedly portrayed as his MO and made a rash choice based on his fear and anger.
Had he any common sense or rational decision making capability he would have realized the hurricane would take Obama's speech off the airways by itself and afforded him more time to vet his choices.
As long as we continue to focus on Palin we are allowing his otherwise bad decision to go under the radar.
McCain reacted to the best American speech of the campaign by trying to steal the thunder with a very bad decision!

1. Not about Palin's problems...it's about McCain's judgement.
You're correct. :hi:

2. Obama knows this which is why his first ad about Palin doesn't even mention her name but shows
repeated pics of McCain and Bush together. "So McCain made his choice. But Bush's policies continue..." (paraphrased)
